From the Classics - Harmonious Colouring
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A one-page "From the Classics" excerpt reprinted in Master Weaver, quoting passages on harmonious colour arrangement from Clinton G. Gilroy's 1844 book The Art of Weaving. It compares the science of colour to musical harmony, describing three primary colours, secondary colours, seven distinct colours matching the musical scale, and the idea of a key colour or tone governing an arrangement. The page also begins with the end of an unrelated passage on cutting pile fabric.
